Forensic Science Center
The Forensic Science Center (FSC) is home to nationally recognized scientists and capabilities to prepare for, characterize and respond to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive threats. Our scientists analyze real-world samples, conduct research and development and provide radiological assistance every day, around the clock. Our findings and analysis support intelligence communities, law enforcement, homeland security and health professionals. As one of two U.S. labs internationally certified by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to handle chemical-warfare agents in environmental samples, the FSC is critical to global efforts to eradicate chemical weapons.
